Happy Valley Retreat

Happy Valley Retreat is the only resort in Queensland that boasts it's very own onsite brewery - Granite Belt Brewery.

With 19 cosy timber cabins including spa and family cabins - all with log fires, a house that sleeps 10 guests, an onsite restaurant and bar and a brewery and function room, Happy Valley Retreat really does have it all.

Nestled amongst the hills surrounding the Queensland border town of Stanthorpe, Happy Valley Retreat is located on 30 acres of beautiful Australian bushland, yet is only a five minute drive from Stanthorpe town centre.

As the sun sets, wander down to the main homestead for a tasting paddle of Geoff's craft beer or a local wine or cider. The rustic ambience of exposed beams and timber panelling, chesterfield lounges, an open fireplace and the friendliest staff, ensure a relaxed atmosphere in which to unwind before moving to the dining room for a heart-warming meal showcasing local produce.
